Between a rock and a hard place: The best rock climbing places in the world
Reach new heights at the most world-renowned climbing locations
Man rock climbing at Mount Brown in Tasmania

Rock climbing has never been more popular than it is today, but did you know that only about 48% of people make the transition from an indoor gym to an outdoor climb? One thing I love about the sport is that both types of climbing are considered valid and challenging. However, if you're hoping to make the transition from "gym to crag," these bucket list locations should definitely be on your radar. Here is a list of our picks for the best rock climbing places in the world.

Disclaimer: As exhilarating and challenging as climbing can be, the sport can also be inherently dangerous. If you are new to the sport, consider enlisting the help of a professional outfitter who can make your entrance into the sport both enjoyable and safe. Always pick a route that suits your climbing level, and make sure your gear is in good condition.

How to buy cross-country skis for your winter escapades
Glide through glorious cross-country ski trails with one of these skis
A group of men in red jackets cross country skiing on a groomed trail

Cross-country skiing is one of my favorite ways to get a full-body workout during the winter, and I love finding new trails through the Cross Country Ski Areas Association. I suppose that it's partly in my blood, since my mother grew up in Finland and had to cross-country ski to school (uphill both ways). She grew to love it again as an adult and passed that love on to me.

Nothing beats gliding over a frozen lake and feeling the sting of the crisp wind on your cheeks. Not a thing but blue sky above and the powder before you will give you that thrill. In this guide, we'll glide you through how to choose your cross-country skis this winter, from the types of skis available to how to choose the length and bindings. That way, no matter what brand you're looking at, you can choose the perfect pair for you.
